Synopsis

Intertitles is an anthology of work situated at the intersection of poetry and the visual arts. The anthology aims to explore the confluences and similarities between the two approaches and is conceived in response to a twofold observation: the increased presence of written, spoken and performed language in the work of visual artists and the simultaneous increase in visibility and circulation of the work and voices of poets in the visual arts arena. Bringing together a substantial and significant collection of work, the anthology recognises that both writers and artists are attracted to the possibilities of language as a material. Through essays, performance texts, poetry and more, Intertitles plots a course through contemporary writing practices and lends perspective to the question of why this might be of particular interest at this moment in time. In art as in poetry, meaning is made in the very conditions of the encounter itself. The knowledge produced is not instructive or codified but subjective and relational. Artists build the worlds that viewers may inhabit temporarily in the moment of their becoming. The physicality of these temporary utopias, however, is frequently realised in the increasingly contested spaces of our museums and galleries. Perhaps poetry, and the world it is capable of building outside of these normative structures, is poised to be the most constitutive form of all. Putting poetry into the social milieu, as a shared goal of artists and writers, can be understood as a gesture towards a truly radical reimagining. Brings together original work by an international list of high-profile writers and artists. Will appeal to a wide range of readers, with interests in both art and literature. Features well-known artists including Laura Prouvost, CAConrad, Sophie Collins, Inua Ellams, Johanna Hedva and Turner Prize-winner Charlotte Prodger.
